Did you know there's two scoops of raisens in a package of Kellogs Raisin Bran?

Well you would if you had this and other phrases pounded in your head back in 70s and 80s.

I was getting some ice yesterday morning from the ice machine. There were two other women there. As I reached in and grabbed it, an avalanche of ice that had stacked up vertically collapsed in one noisy rumble. I said, "Wow, who wouldve thought one scoop would do all that"

"Well if you hadnt got so much ice, blah, blah"

Then of course I made a reference to this stupid commericial that I havent mentioned or thought of since 1985.



Some other memorable commercial phrases:

"You asked for it, you got it! Toyota!"

Did you know that "Four out of five dentists reccomend Trident for their patients who chew gum" was a nice useless phrase to add on to sentences.

And of course who could forget the man who credited an "ancient Chinese secret" for the wonders of Calgon laundry detergent. When your 10 years old, that one comes in handy. :laugh:
